Frequently Asked Questions
Why does soil type matter for a design plan?
Lexington sits on heavy clay in a lot of neighborhoods, and clay drains slow and compacts fast. A design that skips a soil check ends up with beds that pool water or plants that struggle by midsummer. We test drainage and work soil amendment into the plan before picking plants, so the layout actually holds up.
Do you design for shade or full-sun yards?
Both, and most Lexington lots have a mix of the two as trees mature and fence lines shift. We map sun exposure hour by hour across the property, then group plants by light need so nothing gets planted where it can't thrive. That mapping is what separates a plan that lasts from one that needs redoing in two years.
